M&M Creations Store Has Moved

 

Longtime Newser readers may remember M&M Creations. The store is still around, though it recently moved to the Eden Phoenix sim. 

 

"I moved my store from Paradise to Eden, all my builds are rezzed at one level now."

M&M Creations sells a number of items. A number of cottages, homes, and castles are up for sale. But there's also landscaping goods, armor, and for content creators textures, builder kits, sculpt maps, and more. Those interested in getting materials to make content to sell, please check to see if it is allowed.

*Correction*  It was originally stated items made from any of M&M Creations goods could not be resold. Since then, the owner has contacted us that some can be, "I do sell FP items to be sold in creations of others."

Announcement: M and M Creations Sale

We have a rainy day and found it a good time to clean up our shop and listings.
We took a broom and wiped away some very old products which we even forgot we ever made them.
We also found many items which do not reflect current pricing anymore.
So we lowered a lot of prices, some items even up to 50%.

Feel free to visit us on marketplace or inworld for a fresh discovery of our products.

Enjoy, we keep on swimming today (smile)

Various Happenings at the SL12B

Yours truly spent most of his time at the SLB grounds before Press Day building the SL Newser exhibit, so I didn't get much of a look elsewhere. On Press Say itself, I only had a short time to get around. I didn't get the time of any official tour, so just looked around a little at the entrance sim of SL12B Beguile. The "dream" here looked more like a nightmare with this disturbing-looking train.

Not far from the train into the next sim at SL12B Impressive (224/57/24) is the exhibit of our sponsor M&M Creations, by 10 and Marcthur Gooson with their "Cottage Ma Mason."

Near the Newser exhibit at SL12BWonderous (232/231/22) is the SL Universe Forums exhibit by Soen Eber.

 Just across from the Newser's exhibit at SL12B Wonderous (233/196/22) is the "Spire" by Mac Kanashimi, whom assisted with the Cake Stage and whom some time ago worked on the "Pinwheels."

I happened to run into Mac, and had a few words with him. The hat of course was from Mikati Slade, the main builder of the Cake Stage. "So how was it working with Mikati?" I asked him. Matter of factly, he answered, "Just like 3 years ago (at the) cake stage SL9B. She made a scale 1:10 model of the cake stage, then uses my script to move an object to the right region, to the calculated real stage coordinates, then resize times 10."

Of The Spire, "(The) view from the top straight downwards is very nice." Asking him about it, "Well. take a square, then draw a square in it, but slightly smaller and slightly rotated, continue until the squares are small. Later I added the color effects and the changing from left rotating to right rotating squares, and back."

I asked him what other exhibits attracted his attention, but his answer was, "I didn't write them down, i was just flying around."

I soon had to be elsewhere, but did come across two events that evening. One was a stand up comedy performance at the Cake Stage at 4PM SL time by SL comedian Lauren Weyland.

An hour later at the Auditorium (Dreamatorium), was a group of roleplayers of the "Sanctuary" RP, discussing the history of their roleplay, and a few words from each of the players there.

Among the roleplaters was ZodiacLansing, whose words included, "Sanctuary, like several other sims, is born out of an intense love and it shows. When I arrived in the sim and explained that I was new to CCS, I was taken aside by several of the players who worked with me until I understood how things worked. Even to this day, they are willing to help me with any questions I may have. The environment of Sanctuary is one of help and kindness out of character. The members of the city are always willing to help out each other and new players so that everyone proves to the a be better player.

"When the RP starts, things can happen that are dark, but the people remain the same friendly sort who are willing to help. That's the biggest difference I have found and that is what brings me back to the city over and over again. As many will attest to, in our sim we strive very hard to create an atmosphere that sponsors RP and friendship in OOC. To me, it's the best sim."

More to come later this week. In the meantime, don't forget to stop at the Newser's exhibit at SL12B Wonderous (207/195/21).

Dropping by M&M Creations

The other day, I dropped by our sponsor, M&M Creations. For years, they have offered quality content for sale, using sculpted prims. Since 2011, they've been offering mesh items.

In the past, 10 and Marcthur Gooson offered classes for those interested in learning how to build. Although they no longer offer the classes themselves, they still offer tutorials.

The largest of the feature items were the builder packs. The largest was the castle, made of 76 modular building parts.

Scripted, the doors made a loud creaking noise when opened. Quaint in the daytime, but at night, it would probably have an air of eerie spookiness.

The price for the castle building packs was 5500 Lindens for full perm, 3500 for just copy/modify.

Stairs allow one to get to the top of the tower areas.

The "Cottage Ma Mason," a rustic cottage set in a rocky hill, which is slightly more expensive than the castle, at 9500 Lindens for full perm, 3800 for just copy/modify.

 M&M Creations, with years of building experience behind them, your place for quality builds. and buildings.

Press Release: M&M Creations Asking For Modular Tester

Do you like Castles, is it your passion?

I am building a modular castle and would like to have feedback from a tester. Someone who wants to build with and explore the possibilities of the modular parts I make.

Who is willing to invest some time and energy in fine tuning the castle parts (by giving comments)? Give me feedback for improvements and find those small flaws.

I test on the beta grid so you must have access to that. Please European time zone only so we both have daylight.

Apart from the fun which a castle addict must have with a new castle, I will give you the final castle pack(s) for free.

If you are interested please give me your motivation (send me NC).

Hope to see you in my Castle.

Marcthur.

New Sponsor: M&M Creations

Longtime readers from our predecessor publication Second Life Newspaper may remember their big sponsor over time was M&M Creations, 10 and Marcthur Gooson. Not only have these expert content creators build a number of high-quality objects for Second Life residents over the years, one can use their scuplts and textures in their own builds (contact them before making items intended as freebies or for sale), plus they have offered classes and tutorials on building. As the years have gone by, their wares have expended to include mesh, and more recently fitted mesh. Besides Second Life, they have taken their talents to InWorldz and Spot-On 3D.

It is with great pleasure that we announce that M&M Creations has decided to help sponsor Second Life Newser. We look forward to informing the Grid once again about their quality products.

"The Quest" at M&M Creations

By Bixyl Shuftan

M&M Creations has a long history of offering quality goods to Second Life's residents. In the past, they were noted for quality sculpted items. Then they began offering mesh products. Recently, they've offered a challenge for residents, in the form of a "quest."

 This quest is not an easy event. It is meant to be challenging, rewarding & fun.

This Quest contains 20 Questions.
With every Question you can gain a different amount of points.
The more difficult the Question, the more points you get for the right answer(s).
Some Questions have an 'open answer' which means you need to describe something, the answer on these Questions can't be 100% correct. A top score of 100 points is impossible.
The possible answers on the multiple choice Questions can have more then 1 correct answer,

but 1 is always better then the 2nd best. Name only the best answer possible.
Some answers will be a guess, approximately....

You can leave Questions blanc, it will only cost you some points. The perfect score doesn't exist, no worries. Better to work together and use the hints if you really get stuck...

The contestant with the highest amount of points will win a 20.000L$ Voucher.
Second Best a voucher of 8.000L$ & Third Prize is a voucher of 4.000L$!
If 2 best contestants end up with the same amount of points, they will share the prize.

I talked to 10 Goosson, one of the coowners of the store along with Marcthur Goosson. She told me people could play either by themselves or as part of a team, "they can pop in, click the jigsawpuzzle and try to beat the rest or cooperate to have an equal amount of points in the end. (The contest) will be exceptional, it's not an easy event. And it suits us, Marc's work isn't so easy done too and our customers really appreciate that."

"(We've been) in SL for 7 years now Bixyl, people keep coming back for our consistency on quality." A number of goods were for fellow content creators, "the creators who have been so loyal, they have seen all changes, just as we've experienced the creators world of SL. Only the 'oldbies' know how it was when the sculpts came in here. They are still a very important part of our range of products that people still use for their creations."

Of the quest, they, "made this quest winter last year, but didn't dare to launch it, not for easy consumers, not a hunt, just something born at M&M. Everybody can try to do this quest!! there are hints available, and oldbies can help out."

"All these years we've build up something with the creative core of SL, the people who make the world as it looks today, the content all users see and take often for granted. have they any idea what's behind all the creations? For the ones aware of it; this quest is not so difficult and fun to do. It's an event with a small wink ofcourse, no need to get all 100 points. (Is it) impossible... ehm, nope, but hard to get there."

"The point is, M&M are doing their things (for) 7 years the M&M way ... And I dare to be proud to present a different kind of thing to keep up the fun, give something back a challenging way and to get back in touch with all people still hanging around to provide good content in here."

For those interested in taking part, head to M&M Creations at DoubleMM (193, 81, 76). You can also learn more about 10 and Marcthur Goosson and their store at their website:
